Pokémon Sun and Moon are now available! Read our extensive Sun and Moon review at Daily!

The finale of the fourth annual Favorite Pokémon Tournament is underway in Pokémon General!View the poll and vote for as many Pokémon as you'd like. Voting is only open until the 5th of December though, so don't wait to make your picks!

So changes to my team are that I evolved Bellsprou and Totodile, caught a Zubat in Slowpoke Well, caught Spearow while grinding on Route 33, and this morning I caught Kakuna in the Bug Catching Contest and Growlithe on Route 36 and I'm training for the next gym right now.

So sorry I'm falling behind on things here, guys. School just started and I was away for the weekend and got sick. :( Unfortunately, things are probably just gonna get slower from here on out. Last time I played, I just grinded my team up, so I think Vulpix and Jolteon are around 18 or so now. Getting close to progressing at least! I'll hopefully find time to play during breaks between classes or something. n_n Updated the list, so if I missed anyone, please VM me (I'll see it quicker) and let me know, thanks! And good luck to all newcomers. :)

- started in cherrygrove, rested in the pokecentre
- as i left the old man came racing back to me and gave me another present, a townmap app for my pokegear
- i really have no idea how i can repay this mans kindness, now i can run around without getting lost
- just outside of cherrygrove i saw a house, i barged in thinking it was mr.pokemons house, only to find it was
owned by an apricorn loving man who seemed to be down about the constant flow of people confusing him for
mr.pokemon
- i felt bad for him so i lied and said that i'd actually came to see him, instead of Mr.pokemon, this seemed to make him happy and he gave me an Apricorn box as thanks
-as i continued on my way to see Mr.pokemon i came across two young trainers having an intense battle. This battle was so intense that they were blocking the road and i couldnt get
through
- i didnt want to disturb them however, since fighting was a good way of communicating, i noticed another path on the right, it was larger and looked wilder than the path the
trainers were blocking, i went that way because i decided Mr.pokemon lived in that direction, and i have a lucky habit of always being right.
- i found Mr.pokemons house and noticed that somehwere along the way, Zero had lvled up so i gave him a highfive and went inside
- upon entering, a man who wore a hat indoors ran over to me and starting talking excitedly, mentioning something about an email from Elm. I assumed this man was the person i was
looking for. He gave me a 'mystery egg' but i had an uncanny feeling that this egg contained a very feminin looking togepi, so i decided Elm could keep this egg.
- Mr.pokemon then let Zero rest up before we returned to Elm, before i could leave the quiet observer from the other side of the room introduced himself to me as Professor Oak
- he spoke about a load of things that didnt really interest me, however, when he expected Zero and acted impressed/shocked (i couldnt tell which) i started to pay attention
- Professor Oak handed me a pokedex with a subtle wish that i'd complete it for him, then he took off. i decided it was time i should be leaving too, even Zero looked like he wanted to return to
the lab
- just as i stepped outside i recieved a panicked phonecall from Elm, which worried me, he asked me to return right away. Thinking the worst, i charged off in the direction of home, i needed to
protect Elm and the town!
- just as i was leaving Cherrygrove, a rude boy around my age with flaming red hair approached me. He claimed that i was a wimp and that Zero was far too good for me ( as if the pokemon
were my girlfriend or something) then challenegd me to a battle to show that he was superior to me.
- he had a chikorita, which didnt really worry me because my Zero was stronger, after a few attacks his chikorita fainted and Zero reached lvl 10
- after losing to me, the boy claimed he was going become the greatest pokemon trainer in the world before running off.
- as he left i noticed he'd dropped his trainer card, as i was picking it up the boy came racing back and snatched it off of me.
- Remembering that i had been summoned by Elm, i continued on my journey back to New Bark Town
- as i entered the lab, a policeman approached me and began questioning me about a missing pokemon. Somehow he had jumped to the conclusion that i was the culprit and was
about to arrest me when Lyra came charging in proclaiming my innocence (wow that policemen really wasnt very well trained)
- She gave the policeman information about a suspicious red haired boy, who sounded alot like the rude kid i had battled. I tried to recall the name i had seen on his trainer card..R...Renji!
yes, his name was Renji. I decided it would be best to inform the rubbish policeman about this before he tried to arrest any other innocents
- armed with this information, the officer left, closely followed by Lyra. With the incident quickly forgotten, i handed the pokemon egg to Elm, he didn't seem very impressed by it, but
decided to keep it all the same. He then suggested that i take the pokemon gym challenge. I toyed with this idea for a while then decided it would be a good way to test the limits of my
strength. It would probably be a brilliant way of gaining money to repay mum with too, two birds with one stone.
- i told mom about this idea and she seemed to like it, as she encouraged me an suggested that she would keep hold of half of the money i earned from battles, something that i really couldnt
complain or argue about. With everything settled, i headed back in the direction of Cherrygrove, where Lyra took the liberty of showing me a way to catch pokemon.
- Ran around for ages encountering a hoarde of female hoothoot before i finally found a male
- named it Yoru
- trained Yoru while searching for a male spinarak
- Yoru accidently killed the first one we found with a critical hit, which was a shame but proves it's worthy of being on my manly team
- finally caught a spinarak and named it Gale
- trained Gale a little bit, my team was started to look like one >D
- had to go to work so saved and turned off

High School is so far more fun than i thought it would be except for the work. Heres whats happened so far.
Beat the Elite Four with this team.
Sora the High Flying Pidgeot (F)
Fly
U-turn
Aerial Ace
Secret Power

A team worthy of Facing Red? Yellow thinks so. Our teachers are on strike so no school which means i should finish this challenge fairly quickly if i play non stop. But first things first. The Pokeathelon!

Its been a while since I was last able to touch my game. Sorry for the long gap...haven't done much. After getting to Azeala, I made quick work of Team Rocket and then beat both my rival and Bugsy. Wasn't much of a challenge as I managed to snag myself a Slugma egg back in Violet City.

Ilex Forest was an easy walk. Went through it with Slugma leading the way and burned everything that got in my way. I made it to the route before Goldenrod and decided to train there for a bit. Slowly I evolved some of my key members, Bellsprout is now a Weepinbel, Totodile is now Croconaw, and Zubat evolved twice into Crobat.

Beat Whitney fairly easy as well. Now I made my way to Ecruteak and I'm training to battle Morty.

How do I do that hover over image to get info thing? I wanna put the stats in for my PC Pokemon without having to do the same thing I do for my main team.

Not a super update, but I played the other night and got Vulpix and Jolteon to level 25 and lost against Morty lmao. YAY? :)

Edit 1: Okay, this time I actually beat Morty, then I caught my next party member! I'm still gonna play tonight, but I'm long overdue for a good update, so here we go...also gonna post the ball they're in, cause you know, I realized that getting the right balls, even playing as a female lol, is a major part of the challenge...alright here:

Edit 2: Added assigned genders to Frontier facilities. I can't believe I forgot them. @_@ Also, I think I'm going to leave this challenge as an HGSS challenge, just because if you do this in another game, there's not as many Pokeballs to get (except maybe in BW/2) so yeah. Hooray for game specific challenges! I will eventually update the list of Pokemon to gen IV national dex though, to allow for trading in Pokemon that aren't in the game normally. Also, I changed two of the balls. I meant for the Fast Ball to be for girls and the Level Ball for guys, and I somehow got them mixed up. So I noticed and fixed that. If you've already caught something in one of those balls, don't worry about it. Anyway though, that's all I have for today. Might make another progress update as I plan on playing SS for most of the day.

thunder: update #1 ★

Thunder

Per the usual, I start off at New Bark Town. Heading towards Professor Elm's laboratory, and obtaining my starter Pokemon. As my character is female, I must have a female starter, right? After 50 or so tries, I was able to obtain a female Cyndaquil. Naming it after our Challenges moderator Sydian. :3

Professor Elm wanted me to run an errand, as he wants me to go see Mr. Pokemon. So while I was travelling from route to route, I was also getting a head-start on training Sydian in preparation for the first gym battle. It was already night-time and there's only Hoothoots prowling around, so my plans to capture Pokemon would have to wait till the daytime.

As I reached Mr. Pokemon's house, I was given a mysterious egg, and Professor Oak gave me the PokeDex. I exited, recieved a call from Elm that one of his Pokemon was stolen, and decided to head back.

BUT NOT UNTIL HE SHOWS UP.

Rudy

So, I battle this guy. Spammed him with Smokescreen, and it was a piece of cake battle! He ran away, while I traveled back to Elm's lab. Named the rival Rudy after my friend from English class. Gave the egg to Elm, and finally left for the adventure!

Then Ethan shows me how to catch a Pokemon, which...still, I have no intention of doing so in this update, I decided to just keep grinding Sydian. And that includes the trainer battles, even battled Joey and his top-percentage Rattata. xD

I feel unaccomplished just beating Red, so I'm planning to take it a step further by beating the Battle Frontier areas for females, but I'll be recruting a new friend for this last part of Tamika's adventure.

Changed Kiara's name to Klare after evolving her. I felt it was more mature IDK. lol And then I caught a Lapras since I realized it was Friday, so I won't use Dewgong anymore like I originally planned. And lots and lots and lots of grinding if you couldn't tell! So yeah, PROGRESS! :D Lapras was caught in a Moon Ball that I don't feel like looking for a picture of btw.

...aaaand begin the HR for a female chikorita! (edit: #11 and still no dice. WHAT IS THIS SORCERY?!!) (edit edit: finally got one on try 13. Naive nature... too impatient to reset for a better one \o/ this'll be fun!)

Gonna be busy with the GTX challenge event and soon after, the even that's gonna be in this forum. Yes, back to back events lol. Anyway! I won't be as active in my updates, but I'll still be checking the thread for sign ups. If you have questions that you need an immediate answer to, please VM me because I will get to it a lot quicker! Thanks. :)

I am planning to catch a fire-type pretty quick here. I wanted to use Togekiss for Fly but I forgot to check my Togepi's gender before I saved so I can't use it Going to aim for getting Lapras this week for my surf slave/ice-type, and I think I'll train up an Espeon soon as well. Nothing too difficult so far, managed to down Whitney without any trouble whatsoever (aside from pulling my hair out due to Milk Drink) and I've only whited out once... I don't want to talk about it.

Started the game like usual, got my first Pokémon (Cyndaquil), get the egg amd Pokédex at Mr. Pokémons house, fought my rival Mr. Dude (fantastic name, right?) and stuff.
Then I caught a Sentret and a Pidgey on route 29, got through the routes to Violet City. Beat Falkners and the monks asses, then I continued to route 32 where I caught a Mareep, where I also hatched my Togepi (got a female at the first try, yay). Got through the cave and saved in Azaela Town.

I woke up rather late from my bed after an odd nightmare involving a Muk trying to gobble me up. The thought of it still gives me goosebumps. Anyway, rather than talk about this horrific nightmare, let's talk about what happened next.
I walked down the stairs to find my mom, saying that Professor Elm next door was looking for me. She also mentioned something about my friend Ethan, but I didn't pay much attention. I grabbed my bag, my journal, and some other stuff and left my house, ready to see what that Elm guy needed.
After leaving and beeing greeted by a friendly Marill, I went inside the Professor's lab. As I figured, he needed my help with something. Not only he wanted me to help with his research by giving me a Pokémon, he also wanted me to get something from a guy named Mr. Pokémon. Shrugging at the weird name, I agreed, as I was going to finally get a Pokémon like Ethan, and went over to where the Pokéballs were placed.
And then things began to get weird. Out of all the three starters, I decided to choose the green one, but then my head started to ache and everything turned black. When I regained consciousness, I was back at the lab, looking at what three Pokémon to pick. I picked the green one again, and the same thing happened. After the first 5 times this happened, I was beginning to get scared, and decided to pick the one with flames on his back. It happened again. I didn't know what to do, and my heart was starting to beat really fast. I picked the fire starter again, and closed my eyes, but, thankfully, nothing happened. The small Pokémon was smiling at me, and Elm was looking at me confused. He let it go, and told me the coordinates to Mr. Pokémon's house. After that, I got some Potions from the Aide, and my Pokégear from mom. I was glad it was finally repaired, especially after what happened that broke it. But I won't go into details for that.
As I was about to leave New Bark Town, I noticed a kid with long, red hair looking into Elm's lab. I went closer to him, and the boy yelled and pushed me away. Upset, I left for the first city, Cherrygrove City, with my mind all worked up because of anger. Why were all boys like that?, I asked myself as I walked though grassy areas, WHya re they all so mean? Then I thought about Ethan, how he was never mean to me, and I managed to calm myself down.
After what seemed like forever, but only took a couple of minutes, I reached Cherrygrove City, and was immediately startled by an old man, who gave me a tour of the city, gave me some shoes for running, and later a Pokégear map card. Weird. I healed Cyndaquil at the Pokémon Center and moved on to Route 30, where Mr. Pokémon's house was. I got an Apricorn box from a kind of lonely man in his forties/fifties, and then continued to make my way to my destination, wondering if people were that weird outside of New Bark Town, and if I would be safe in my journey.
After going through a small forest, I reached a house, with a mailbox that said it was Mr. Pokémon's place. I went in, and was greeted by both him and a renowned Pokémon Professor, Samuel Oak. I remember hearing him on the radio when I was a few years younger and dreaming of going on a Pokémon Journey. Anyway, I got an Egg and a Pokédex, and I had to deliver that Egg to Elm, for him to investigate or something. Mr. Pokémon then healed my Pokémon and soon I was back outside.
However, my Pokégear started ringing, and I picked up. It was Elm, and he didn't sound okay. Then he yelled at someone. I knew something was wrong, and that it was time to head back home. I started thinking of that red-haired kid, and got mad again. I arrived at Cherrygrove City, and as I was to leave, the same kid that I was thinking off appeared, calling me a wimp. That was it. Time to settle it.
He got a small blue crocodile-like Pokémon, known as Totodile. That kid proved himself to be the wimpy one, as I wiped the floor with him in spite of the type advantage that he had. And as he left, that stupid arrogant jerk dropped his Trainer Card, and I finally got his name. He took it from me rather violently and then ran off.
Soon after that I was at Elm's lab. A cop was there, and accused me of stealing one of Elm's Pokémon. Then I got the pieces together, it was that red-haired kid. Everything was clear to me; however, the cop just wouldn't buy it. Luckily, Ethan barged inside, claiming I was innocent, and saying he saw that red-haired jerk looking into the lab. The cop then asked me if I got the kid's name, and nodded.

"Marco."

Then the cop left, and Ethan followed not long after that. I gave the egg to Elm, yadda yadda yadda, and then I told my mom I was leaving, and then left. Ethan was waiting for me outside of town, taught me how to catch a Pokémon, and even gave me tools for that. How sweet of him. I calmed down again, and after he left, I thanked Arceus for having a friend like him.
I got past Cherrygrove, and arrived at Violet City, after many battles and some Pokémon that I added to my team. I caught a Sentret, a Pidgey, and a Caterpie, which was already a Metapod by the time I got to Violet. What I wanted to do was go into the Gym, but this guy told me I had to go up Sprout Tower first. That tower was full of Bellsprout, which were Poison-type, but nevertheless I agreed to go there to train.
After battling many monks, Metapod glowed and evolved into Butterfree. WIth Butterfree and Cyndaquil, I reached the top of the tower, where the Elder was said to be. But when I arrived, someone else was there as well. Marco.
He had just defeated the Elder, and was being told that he treats his Pokémon in a harsh way. Well, pretty obvious, since he was a big jerk, and he didn't seem to care about that at all. He used a bizarre rope to leave the place, and it was my turn to beat the Elder. I did, and after the battle, Cyndaqui evolved as well. I would have smiles if those Bellsprout statues hadn't creeped me out so much. I left the building as fast as I could, and then it was time to beat the Gym.
The Gym was quite easy, although I was afraid that I would fall down to my doom on my way to the leader. Luckily that didn't happen, and I managed to defeat Falkner with ease. I got my badge, my TM51, and then I left. After that I got a call from Elm, saying that his Aide was at the Pokémon Mart. I got there, and he gave me an Egg. After that, an odd girl in a kimono talked to me and left. Weird. I walked around Violet City, enjoying the sunset, when suddenly the Egg glowed. However, it was too bright, and I had to close my eyes. When I opened them, however, I was back at the Mart, and the Aide gave me the Egg again. Same thing as when I was picking my starter, I was starting to get freaked out again. At happened three times, but the last time, when I opened my eyes, I was at Violet City, holding a happy-looking Togepi in my eyes.
I rushed to Elm's lab and showed him the Pokémon. He mentioned something about a Legendary, and then gave me a stone for stopping evolution. Why would I want to do that?, I thought as I amde my way to Violet City again.
By the time I arrived, it was very dark and my legs were killing me from walking and running so much. I asked Nurse Joy for a room, and she kindly gave me one. I lied in bed and went to sleep, hoping the next day wasn't as bizarre as that one.

...My God, that took longer than I expected. I'll post Lauren's team later on, since not much progress was made since that last adventure.

Here's the dealio now. Since last time I have...
-beaten Morty
-saved Amphy and who-knows-how-many inept sailors
-explored a lot in order to gather up TMs
-trained my party
-accidentally run into Entei and Raikou right after one another, once each (chucked a fast ball out of desperation but no dice)

Right now this is what my party looks like (still no images. I am a bad poster);

So obviously some of my pokémon still need some work (especially the movesets) and I'm going to be stuck on Jasmine unless I get a good fire-type. I want to figure out which NPCs have a vulpix and go and battle them so that I can trade for one. I'm also going to need a fly slave, not sure who I'll pick yet... hmm... back to the drawing board I guess.

I woke up the next day feeling very dizzy. Everything around me felt cold, and my head ached a lot. I asked the nurse for help, and to make a long story short I had a little fever, which meant being stuck in bed for the next days. Terrific. That red-haired jerk is getting way ahead of me while I'm stuck in bed.

It seemed like forever before I could actually go back out there. I went outside of town, to a palce where some odd ruins were. I decided to explore them and, holding my baby Togepi in my arms, went inside a chamber. I examined the back of it, and an odd message saying "ESCAPE" was there. That was weird, and I first thought it was some kind of warning. Then, I thought about an odd rope that I found back at Sprout Tower. I set Togepi on the floor, and reached into my bag to get the rope. But as soon as I grabbed it, everything shook. I dropped the rope and grabbed Togepi, then closed my eyes hoping for the worst. But everything became calm again, so I opened my eyes and was pretty surprised to see a hole where the odd message was. My Togepi squirmed, eager to explore, so I walked inside. There were four items there, and I grabbed them and put them in my bag. Ahead was a hole, and I thought it was time to head back. But the curious little Pokémon in my arms squirmed more and jumped off my arms, falling into the hole below, making me go in there to prevent something awful from happening to her.

Luckily he wasn't hurt. But as I took a closer look at the floor, another odd message was there, in the same type of writing as the one that said "ESCAPE". I walked, trying to read it. The message said: "OUR CLAN ENGRAVED WORDS IN THIS PLACE" or something like that. I was slightly freaked out, but before I could do anything else, my baby Togepi ran away, and jumped into another hole, forcing me to chase after her once again.

I landed on my butt in a creepy place full of statues. Luckily, there were people there, and in spite of the bizarre looks, it seemed safe. I grabbed Togepi and left the place. After that, I went back inside the chamber, as there was a puzzle to solve. I left my Togepi on the floor once more, and told her not to move. She nodded and I proceeded to work on the puzzle. It was easy, to say the least. But after it was solved, the floor below me opened, and I fell into that bizarre place full of statues again. A scientist gave me some report on something then ran off. And as I got back on my feet, I found myself being chased by Pokémon that looked like the writing I had previously seen. What was going on? Was it a nightmare, a hallucination? Did my fever go up? I ran the hell out of there with my baby Togepi in my arms. Unlike me, she seemed to be having a blast.

I ran and ran uintil I reached the Pokémon Center in Violet City. I told the nurse to heal my Pokémon, and once she was done, I went to my room and took a nap, cuddling Togepi. What a bizarre experience.

When I woke up, it was dark outside, and I realised I had overslept. I hastily got out of bed and left the Pokémon Center, holding Togepi in my arms. I checked my Pokégear; to reach the next town I had to go south. Excellent, time to get going. But, once again, my curious little Togepi was staring at Sprout Tower. She jumped off my arms again, and ran straight there. I chased after her, and by the time I grabbed her, I was already inside, and on the second floor. Oh, sweet Arceus, she was quite a handful.

I told her not to do that again, and she nodded looking at me with puppy eyes. I smirked, and I was about to leave...if it wasn't for an odd presence. A bunch of gassy Pokémon appeared out of nowhere, ready to harass me. My Pokédex identified them as Gastly. I started shaking like a leaf, as I had heard of them before. Ghost/Poison-Type Pokémon, very mischievous. I closed my eyes and held Togepi tighter, being unable to move. Dear Lord, I hate Sprout Tower so much...

But the, Togepi broke free once more, and I opened my eyes, worried about my poor baby. But I was astonished to see that she was glowing purple, and knocking out the Gastlys one by one. And that the gastlys could not harm her. Then I remembered, Ghost moves had no effect on Normal-type Pokémon. I smirked as Togepi finished them all and then leapt into my arms, and I embraced her. Time to leave the tower, to never return.

I headed into Route 32. After some Pokémon Battles, which I won with ease, I went into the Pokémon Center to rest. My Pokémon were tired and, quite frankly, so was I, even though I had been sleeping a lot. I got a Rod from a fisherman, then went to my room. A cave called Union Cave awaited, and I could cross it the following day, once I was full of energy. According to the Pokégear, Azalea Town was on the other side.
